Abstract: Objective To observe the therapeutic efficacy and side effects of pan-genotype DAA (sofosbuvir+velpatasvir) in the treatment of chronic hepatitis C. Methods After the informed consent was obtained from the patients, 46 cases of chronic hepatitis C that met our recruitment criteria and were inpatients or outpatients in our hospital from 2015 to 2017 were selected as the treatment group. Other 46 cases of chronic hepatitis C receiving interferon therapy were selected as the control group. The treatment group was treated with pan-genotype DAA for 12 weeks,while the control group received short-acting interferon combined with ribavirin. The therapeutic efficacy and side effects were then compared. The comparison of therapeutic efficacy ts was evaluated by Chi-square test. Results At week 12, the HCV-RNA negative rates of the treatment group and the control group were 93.47% and 50%, respectively, with the difference being statistically significant (χ2=115.565, P<0.001). The side effects of the treatment group were less than those of the control group. In the treatment group, the negative rates of HCV-RNA in gene type 1, 2, 3, 6 were 100%, 100%, 77.78%, and 100%, respectively. Conclusion In the treatment of chronic hepatitis C, pan-genotype DAA has a favorable curative effect and less side effects, with the negative conversion rates being 100% except for genotype 3. However, its therapeutic efficacy needs further prove by large scale randomized trial.
